To my dear friend who still helped me fix my boat even after he had retired from Shins Marine. I never knew a better mechanic than he was and so quick to help out with your boating needs no matter what they were. If it was a Mecury, then he had the knowledge to fix it! A small tidbit, he used to fix Ron Rewald's exotic cars when all but a small handful of folks knew how to fix them. My boat is still alive thanks to him but under different ownership these days. I ended up having a child who required all my attention so I gave up my boat and muscle cars to raise him. Aloha Shinji! Even my nephews speak highly of you because I use to tell them stories about how good of a mechanic you were and how great of a guy you were as well! One of the best in my eyes and light years ahead of most! He used to tell me back then, "Damned machinists want everything perfect!" Then he would laugh! I hope to see you on the other side as a young man my dear old friend!
